🎄✨ Cheers to all the Mama Clauses and Daddy Clauses out there spending the day (and night!) making Christmas magic happen.

You deserve a break—and what better way than with a sip around the world at EPCOT? 🍹✨

Here’s an idea for 2025: give the gift of Disney magic instead of running yourself ragged in stores.

Imagine swapping shopping stress for a stroll down Main Street, U.S.A., or trading wrapping paper for memories that last a lifetime. 🏰✨

Burnt out parents, this one’s for you—Disney is calling your name! 🌟

Let me help you plan the ultimate escape. 🍸

Drop a 🎄 in the comments if you’re ready to make the holidays magical your way in 2025.

Choosing a favorite World Showcase pavilion is like choosing a favorite student—each one is magically special in its own way.

But the France pavilion always seems to Eiffel for me!
From the charming Parisian streets to the bon appétit pastries at Les Halles, it’s like stepping into a slice of heaven. Plus, meeting characters like Belle in her iconic blue dress and Princess Aurora in her pink gown adds that extra bit of royal treatment. And with Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, the fun is always cooking!✨

If you’re dreaming of a Disney vacation and want to experience all the magic of EPCOT and beyond, I’m here to help make your Disney dreams come true! 🌟 Whether you’re planning a trip to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, or any of Disney’s magical resorts, I can help you create a customized itinerary full of unforgettable experiences.

🎢 Don’t get your panties in a wad! 🩲

Before you head to the parks, here’s the real rundown on some ride closures and changes at Disney. 🚧

⚡ Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is taking a little break for refurbishment starting January 6, 2025. It’s coming back with fresh magic in 2026, so saddle up for one last wild ride before the dust settles! 🐎

🦕 Dinoland USA is saying goodbye to some dino-favorites like Triceratop Spin, Fossil Fun Games, and Chester & Hester’s Dinosaur Treasures on January 12. But don’t panic! Starting January 13, the transformation into Tropical Americas begins! The Boneyard, Dinosaur, Restaurantosaurus, Dino-Bite Snacks, and Trilo-Bites will all remain open, so there’s still plenty to dig into! 🦴🍗

🛳️ Jungle Cruise just reopened, and it’s cruising through Mickey’s Not So Scary parties until Jingle Cruise jingles in on November 2. 🎄

So, pack your bags, grab your patience, and mark your calendars—there’s always something new on the horizon at Disney! 🎢

💫 Drop your favorite ride in the comments and let’s keep the magic rolling! ✨

From grandparents to grandkids, a multi-generational Disney vacation is something truly special.

Check this out!

Disney's got a magical new helper in town, and it’s called "Hey Disney!"

Now in rooms at Walt Disney World and even some at Disneyland, this voice assistant is a game-changer. Whether it’s your kids cracking up at Disney jokes or you use it to request fresh towels from Mousekeeping, everyone’s going to love it.

“Hey Disney!” teams up with Alexa on Amazon Echo devices, letting you chat with your Disney Magical Companion to ask questions, get items, and even hear stories from beloved characters.

If "Hey Disney!" could grant you a vacation wish, what would you ask for during your Disney vacation?

Forget the gifts that are forgotten in months—memories of a Disney trip last a lifetime.

Whether it’s seeing the joy on their faces as they meet their favorite characters or watching the fireworks light up the night sky, these are moments that last forever.

Here are 3 magical reasons your family will cherish this experience:

1️⃣ Candlelight Processional: Experience the warmth of the season as Disney blends tradition and storytelling. A beautiful way to connect with the true meaning of Christmas through carols and scripture, narrated by a celebrity in an unforgettable setting. 🙏✨

2️⃣ Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade: Watch in wonder as your favorite characters bring the spirit of the holidays to life with festive floats, music, and, of course, Santa Claus himself! 🎅🎄

3️⃣ Holiday Trees & Treats: Explore the festive magic spread across the parks, from towering Christmas trees to delicious seasonal treats. Every corner of Disney radiates the joy and wonder of the holidays. 🎄🍭

🎄 Ready to make this holiday season unforgettable? Drop a 🎅 in the comments if you’d love to be Santa’s helper this year! Let’s talk about making magical memories at Disney!

Even as Category 3 Hurricane Milton makes its way toward Florida, Disney Cast Members have gone above and beyond to ensure every guest is taken care of—putting the magic first, even while their own homes and personal needs are at risk.

The Ride Out Crews have shown incredible bravery and dedication, making guests feel safe and supported during this scary time.

This kind of magic is what makes Disney so special, a legacy built by Walt himself that lives on through the passion and kindness of these extraordinary individuals.

I’m praying and sending all my love to the coast of Florida and to those impacted by Milton.

Drop a 💙 to show your support for the Cast Members and all those affected FL as Milton heads to the cost.

🌟 Katie’s Travel Tip Tuesday 🌟

When it comes to Disney souvenirs, we all love our plushes, sweatshirts, and mugs—but if you’re looking for something that feels a little more personal and unique, EPCOT’s World Showcase has some hidden gems!

One of my favorites? The handwoven friendship bracelets from the Mexico Pavilion.

These vibrant bracelets aren’t just a stylish accessory—they come with a heartwarming legend that makes them the perfect gift to remember a trip with the people who mean the most to you. At just $9.99, it’s an affordable way to bring a meaningful piece of Disney home without breaking the bank.
Whether it’s a quiet moment sipping a margarita in Mexico or exploring the pavilions, EPCOT has a way of creating memories that last forever—and these little bracelets capture that feeling perfectly.

What’s the most unique or meaningful souvenir you’ve ever found at Disney? I’d love to hear about your favorites! 💬👇

🏈 Don't fumble your Disney trip just because the big game is on!

🏈My football-obsessed hubby was ready to bench our vacation plans until I showed him these MVP spots to catch the game at Walt Disney World:

1️⃣ City Works Eatery and Pour House at Disney Springs – because who doesn’t love touchdowns and tater tots? 🏆

2️⃣ Rix Sports Bar at Coronado Springs – where the plays are as good as the pints 🍻

3️⃣ Splitsville at Disney Springs – because strikes aren't just for bowling! 🎳

And if all else fails, hit up the resort pool bar, let the kids swim, and ask them to put the game on! Trust me, it’s a win-win! 🎉

Who are you rooting for this fall? let me know in the comments.

👍🏻 GIG'EM AGGIES and BTHO notre dame.

How important are vacation photos to you? Are you satisfied with whatever you snap on your phone camera, or do you lug around a big camera? 📸

For me, nothing beats the magic of Disney PhotoPass photographers capturing the joy of the moment—especially those on-ride photos that you just can’t get anywhere else!

Personal Story: On our honeymoon, my husband and I decided to invest in the Memory Maker, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions we made. We have these incredible photos capturing the pure joy and excitement as we started the next chapter of our lives together.

The smiles, the carefree vibe—it was all there, perfectly preserved without us having to worry about a thing. Disney took care of us, ensuring that every magical moment was documented, so we could just live in the moment.

Since then, we’ve never skipped the PhotoPass. It’s not just a photo package; it’s a souvenir that lasts a lifetime, holding the essence of our most cherished memories.

When you book your Walt Disney World vacation, you can add the Memory Maker photo package in advance, which saves you a few bucks and ensures every special moment is captured. With Memory Maker, you'll get select attraction photos and any shots from PhotoPass photographers who are scattered all over the parks. Imagine having everyone in the picture, with professional, frame-worthy photos to treasure forever.

Ready to make memories that last a lifetime? Let’s make sure you don’t miss a single magical moment!
